Display modification date/time of items based on user's time zone in CME

Modification date/time of items in Content Manager (component, pages, folders, etc.) are based on server time. With editors working globally, editors could very well be in a different time zone.

It would be nice to display the modification date/time of items based on the user's time zone (which then can be configured in "User Preferences"). This is applicable to all areas where modification date/time is displayed: list view, Info tab, etc.

  • What you suggest sounds attractive, but I wonder if it might not be more confusing. Once you start showing local date/time for one thing, you'd have to do it for everything, or you'd have two systems and no-one would know which they were looking at.

    I suspect that the choice of server time is deliberate, and probably based on how people work with the publish queue and scheduled publishing.
